TRANSCRIPTION: 
   Maybe five hours sleep. Tried choking down some food. Slept in clothes. Getting down stairs painful. Poor S & A [Sandra and Angela, Vincent's sisters who were in San Francisco with Vincent, caring for him]. Van brought us to appt.  Another scan.  I am  [so] weak that Sandra had to help get [me] dressed. Waiting for [prescription] security guard tried to kick me out, though[t] I was a vagrant. On way home had to pee.  Opened up van door & took a leak.  It is amazing what one will do when one does not care. Dr...wants me to enter UC Med. I'll never see my house again.  I'm not taking any more medicine.  I just want to get it over with."

    This is Vincent's last entry, his handwriting made jagged and woozy from nerve damage to his arms. He died the next day, Friday, February 10.
